The Graduate School

THE GRADUATE SCHOOL AT INDIANA

GENERAL INFORMATION

Graduate work was inaugurated at Indiana University of
Pennsylvania in September, 1957.

Programs leading to the degrees Master of Education, Master
of Arts, Master of Science, Doctor of Education, and Doctor of
Philosopfiy are now available. Non-degree programs leading to
certification in various fields are also available.

In all graduate programs the objectives are (1) to encourage
excellence in scholarship, (2) to provide for depth in the
student's special field, and (3) to stimulate enthusiasm for
continued cultural and professional growth

Location — Indiana University of Pennsylvania is located in
Indiana, Pennsylvania, a community with a population of
approximately 20,000. Indiana is 30 miles north of Johnstown
and 60 miles northeast of Pittsburgh. Situated in the foothills of
the Allegheny Mountains. Indiana has a climate that is
conducive to study the year round.

Library — The Rhodes R. Stabley Library provides excellent
facilities for graduate work with professional librarians readily
available for assisting with specialized reference work.

The present book collection of 475,000 volumes grows at the
rate of approximately 50,000 volumes annually. The library
owns 630,000 units of microform and in addition there are
extensive holdings of periodicals (about 4,000 current titles),
microfilms, microcards, curriculum materials, federal and state
documents, filmstrips and recordings.

The Rhodes R. Stabley Library was opened in 1961. It is
designed to give efficient service through a uniform flow of
library materials in an attractive, but functional setting. At least
one professional librarian is always on duty to provide reference
service. Book stacks are open to all students.

Instructional Resources Services — The University support
service dealing with Instructional Systems Technology has
been developed to assist in the teaching/learning process by
making available sensory or non-book materials for instruction
and actively assisting faculty in the process of Instructional
Development.

The services consist of the research and development of
instructional systems such as dial access, student response, FM
radio, closed-circuit as well as community Cable TV, and
personal self-instructional materials. In addition, the services
provide photographic, sound recording and reproduction,
design and production of conventional instructional materials;
procurement, inventory, and maintenance of University multi-
media equipment and materials; developing and maintaining a
16mm film library; and assisting in technical consultative
services dealing with sensory materials to the administration,
instructional staff, students, and community.

Although the media equipment and materials are primarily
located in the academic departments, the service center with the
exception of maintenance, is housed in the lower floor of Davis
Hall. It is estimated that the University media inventory is worth
well over a half million dollars.

Indiana University of Pennsylvania

The Computer Center — The Computer Center, established
in July, 1963, is located in the heart of Indiana's main campus.
The Center provides computational support for undergraduate
and graduate courses, faculty and student research, and the
administrative requirements of the University. The computing
capacity of the Center is provided by a large-scale disk oriented
central processor which supports both time-sharing and batch
processing services for the university community. Typewriter
terminals, located both in the Computer Center and in various
departments on campus, permit the use of the computer on a
time-sharing basis, Keypunching facilities and a full
complement of tabulating equipment are available in the
Computer Center for student use. Additional keypunching
facilities are also available in many departments on campus. Aid
in the use of the computer and facilities may be obtained from
user assistants on duty at the Computer Center, and from the
Center's professional staff.

Indiana's Computer Center plays an active part in the daily
functioning of the University. It is the principle laboratory
facility for computer-oriented courses and is used as a teaching
aid in many classes involving statistical and numerical analyses
and computer simulations. The staff at the Center is actively
involved in continuing work aimed at making computers a more
effective and readily accessible tool for both the academic and
administrative segments of the university community.

Career Services — Placement is a service offered by Indiana
University of Pennsylvania to its graduates without charge. The
services of the Placement Bureau are available to students who
have received their Master's degree or who have been accepted
as candidates for the degree in the Indiana Graduate School.
Graduate students wishing to take advantage of placement

service should complete the necessary forms with the Director
of Career Services.

The Career Services Office prepares a listing of all current
job openings available to lUP graduates. To obtain this listing,
the graduate can stop in Career Services or send a stamped,
self-addressed envelope requesting the listing. Credentials are
also mailed out to potential employers at their request.

applicant who plans to work towards a graduate degree in the
field of study and who has satisfied the requirements for
admission to the Graduate School. Admission to the
Graduate School on full graduate standing allows the appli-
cant to program for courses, but it does not guarantee
subsequent admission to candidacy for a degree in a specific
field.

given to qualified applicants who plan to work towards a
graduate degree, but whose application materials are in-
complete at the time of admission. However, if upon comple-
tion of application the applicant does not meet the minimum
standards for admission, he may be denied admission.

who do not plan to work toward a graduate degree and have
satisfied the requirements for admission to the Graduate
School. Applicants may wish at a future time to be reclassified
as Full Graduate Standing. This may be done upon request.
Credits completed while on Temporary Graduate Standing
may be applied toward a graduate degree with the approval of
the student's department after changing to Full Graduate
Standing. Such action requires the approval of the Graduate
Dean.

4. Special Graduate Standing. This is a probationary classifica-
tion which may be granted to students who at the time of
admission may have some academic deficiency.

5. Inactive Standing. Applicants who decide to postpone their
actual enrollment in graduate classes will be classified as
inactive. Applicants may remain on inactive status up to one
year after the intended date of initial enrollment in courses.
Thereafter, they must reapply for admission to the Graduate
School.

6. Denied Admission. This classification may be given to an
applicant who does not satisfy minimum requirements for
admission to the Graduate School. An individual denied
admission will normally receive a letter giving the reasons for
the denial.

Miller Analogies Test — Applicants for admission who are
requested to take the Miller Analogies Test should schedule the
examination through the Testing Center, lUP. The test is
administered once a month. Applicants taking the M.A.T. at
another institution should request that the score be sent to
Dean, Graduate School, Indiana University of Pennsylvania.

Academic Information —11

Graduate Record Examinations — Applicants to all
departments must take the APTITUDE section of the Graduate
Record Examination. The following departments also require
that the applicant take the ADVANCED section: Biology;
Educational Psychology (Education); German; Home School
Visitor (Education); Music (M.A. Music); Music (M.Ed.
Education); Psychology; School Psychology (Education);
Spanish; D.Ed, in Elementary Education (Education); Ph.D. in
English (English).

Foreign Student Applicants

All foreign students applying for admission to the Graduate
School should follow general procedures. In addition each
applicant whose native language is not English must present
evidence of ability to comprehend English. Each applicant

Auditors

A student cannot audit a class unless he has been admitted to
the Graduate School. Auditors must have permission from the
instructor and the Dean of the Graduate School before
programming as an auditor. An auditor will pay the normal
tuition and required fees. An auditor will, with permission from
the instructor, participate in class discussion, do practicum
work, take examinations and share the privileges of a class
member. An audit grade will be given only if the student has
completed all course requirements. The auditor cannot secure
credit for his work nor can he subsequently secure credit for
work done in the course. A student, who because of his status as
a graduate assistant or a fellowship recipient, is required to
register for a certain number of credits is not permitted to count
those courses for which he Is registering as an auditor for this
purpose.

Academic Load

Many graduate students depend upon part-time or full-time
employment to meet expenses. A student who is thus employed
must recognize the time demands of his work schedule in
planning his academic program. The Graduate School takes the
position that the facilities of the Graduate School should be
made available only to students who can profit from their
Graduate School experience to a maximum extent.

It is possible for students to schedule a full-time load in many
of the approved programs. Nine to fifteen semester hours of
work per semester is regarded as a full-time graduate load. Eight
semester hours of work or less is regarded as a part-time
graduate load. Students who intend to take a full-time load

12 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania

should not plan to hold an outside full-time job. Graduate
Assistants cannot register for more than thirteen hours in any
one semester. No student can accumulate more than six hours
in "tour" courses toward a degree.

PROGRAMMING AND REGISTRATION

Advisement — After a student has been admitted to the
Graduate School, he should check with the Chairman or the
Director of Graduate Studies in his intended field of study. If the
student is unclassified, he should consult with the Dean of the
Graduate School. Advisement is required for all students
enrolling for graduate classes for the first time. Certain
departments require that students be advised before
programming for courses each semester. Consult instructions
with program materials for a listing of departmental instructions
on advisement.

Pre-Reglstratlon — Prior to each semester or summer
session the graduate student will receive pre-registration
materials and instructions from the Graduate School. Fill out the
program form according to instructions and return form to the
Graduate School by the deadline specified in the Calendar.
Each program must be subsequently approved by the Graduate
Dean.

The following grading system is used for all graduate classes.
A — Excellent C — Fair I — Incomplete

B — Good F — Failure W — Withdrawn

A "I" (Incomplete) may be issued only when the work is
interrupted for justifiable reason. No "I" can be given without
the consent of the Dean of the Graduate School. An "I" must be
made up within sixty days of the end of the semester in which it
was given. An "I" given for GD 550 or GD 650 may be carried
indefinitely. If not made up within the sixty day period, the "I"
will automatically become an "F". A "W" will be entered on the
permanent record if the student officially withdraws before the

completion of the sixth week of the scheduled periods. No "W"
can be given without the consent of the dean of the Graduate
School. If a student officially withdraws after completion of the
sixth week of the scheduled periods, an "F" will be entered on
the permanent record. However, if this withdrawal is justifiable
and approved by the Graduate Dean, an "I" can be given.

represent the instructor's professional and objective evaluation
of performance.

Evaluation — A departmental evaluation of academic
progress and professional potential is to be placed in personal
files. Such evaluation is available upon request.

Instruction — One has the right to instruction which
encourages the free and open discussion of ideas, and which
respects the individual needs and aspirations of the students.
Likewise, it is one's responsibility to maintain the classroom
decorum and atmosphere which insures that this process of
learning can take place.

Advisement — One has the right to the best advice and
counsel that your department can provide in such areas as
program and planning, selection of courses and professors, and
general degree requirements.

Role In One's Department — Each department offering a
graduate program is required to establish a Graduate Studies
Committee and is urged, but not required, to form an
association for its graduate students.

The Graduate Student Assembly — The Graduate Student
Assembly is the graduate students' organization. One
representative to serve on the Graduate Student Assembly is
elected from each department by the full- and part-time
graduate students of that department. The Graduate Student
Assembly functions to serve all graduate students by regularly
reviewing the policies of the Graduate Council, by participating
in the judicial procedure for graduate students, and by working
to improve the social and cultural life of the Graduate student.

Judicial Procedure — Any member of the academic
community of Indiana University of Pennsylvania may initiate a
case involving the rights or responsibilities of graduate
students. The Graduate Student Judiciary, composed of the
three officers of the Graduate Student Assembly and two other
council members, has original jurisdiction in all cases. A case
may be referred, or a decision appealed, to the Departmental
Graduate Judiciary, composed of the Director of Graduate
Studies of the Department, two members of the graduate
teaching staff, and two graduate students.

The final step in the judicial procedure is the University
Graduate Judiciary, composed of five members of the Graduate
Council. The University Graduate Judiciary hears all appeals
brought before it, and its decision is final and binding.

REGULATIONS FOR PRINCIPAL'S
CERTIFICATES IN PENNSYLVANIA

The Cooperative Administration of the Regulations

by Indiana University of Pennsylvania and

The Pennsylvania State University

An applicant for a Provisional Elementary or Secondary
Principal's certificate must be endorsed by an institution with an
approved program in administration. Indiana does not provide a
program in administration but has a cooperative arrangement
with The Pennsylvania State University whereby a student
interested in this certification may secure the endorsement of
the approved institution by the following plan:

l.lf a candidate for one of these certificates completes
graduate work at Indiana for a Master of Education Degree in
Elementary Education or in an academic field, he may complete
the post master's-work (at least 15 hours) at The Pennsylvania
State University.

2. When the Student applies for admission to candidacy for
the M.Ed, at Indiana, he should indicate his intention to seek
principalship certification. The Dean of the Indiana Graduate
School will review the candidate's qualifications and may
recommend the candidate to The Pennsylvania State
University.

3. The Pennsylvania State University decides how much of
the graduate work completed at Indiana may be counted
towards the 45 hours needed for certification endorsement. Part
or all of the minimum 30 hours earned for the M.Ed, at Indiana
may be acceptable. The student should plan to schedule
reading courses and courses in measurement and statistics as
electives in his program at Indiana.

4. The completion of the research requirement at Indiana
may be accepted as documentary evidence of proficiency in
English.

5. After completion of his graduate program at Indiana, the
student should seek admission to the Graduate School of The
Pennsylvania State University indicating his interest in
principalship certification. For application forms and informa-
tion write to: The Assistant Dean for Admissions. The Graduate
School, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park,
Pennsylvania 16802.

6. The provisional certificate based on the 45 hours is valid
for serving as a Principal for five years. To make this provisional
certificate permanent, 15 additional approved graduate hours
are required and may be completed at The Pennsylvania State
University or other institutions with an approved administration
program.

assigned to one of the advisors who will assist him in planning
his program of study.

Program Advisors Students

Thomas J. Dongllla A — F

Frank Ross G — L

Robert E. Slenker M — R

John Dropcho S — Z

Each student will have an advisory committee of (1) the
program advisor, (2) a professor from his area of specialization,
(3) a faculty member of the student's choice, and (4) either the
department chairman or the director of graduate studies. This
committee will review the student's progress and make the
recommendation for candidacy. The professor from the area of
specialization will act as the committee chairman and will be
chosen by the director of graduate studies or the department
chairman.

Research and Independent Study

Independent Study: A student may select a specific problem
for one or two semester hours and pursue it in off campus study
with the help of an advisor. The student will present a proposal
for approval to the advisor of his choice and the director of
graduate studies. If the proposal is for three study hours or
more, it will be reviewed by the advisory committee and juried at
the end by the same committee.

Thesis: Under both thesis and independent study, the final
product may be a one-artist show of the minor and major area.
The show will be juried by the thesis committee, which will be

composed of the advisory committee plus the associate dean for
research of the graduate school. The show will be accompanied
by a written statement, sketch books, catalogue, notes or other
method of reporting deemed appropriate by the committee. All
shows will leave some permanent evidence of their existence

MASTER OF ARTS DEGREE IN ART THERAPY

The design and philosophy of this program is to provide the
theoretical and social interaction for art therapy skills, which are
practiced in a clinical, educational or rehabilitative setting. A
practicum or internship, under the supervision of a practicing
art therapist, psychiatrist or other clinical personnel, in an
applicable setting is required. The actual master's program is an
interdisciplinary one of art, art therapy, psychology and related
areas. Students enrolled in the program are a part of existing
course offerings except for the 12 hours of Art Therapy Core
Course vi/ork. Students may select electives appropriate to their
backgrounds, interests and individual goals. Each student Is
expected to consult with their art therapy advisor before
planning their particular program.

BUSINESS

The School of Business offers programs leading to the
degrees of (1 ) Master of Education in Business and (2) Master of
Science in Business. The Master of Education program is
designed primarily to permit the business teacher to broaden
his understanding of the business world and to study his
teaching procedures in the light of new experience. The Master
of Science program is designed primarily for businessmen,
industrial personnel, and government employees who are
interested in continuing their academic study in business.

Upon admission to the Graduate School, each student is
tentatively assigned an advisor. The advisor assists the student
in scheduling his program of studies. If thetentative assignment
Is mutually agreeable to the student and the advisor, the
arrangement is continued.

Prior to his admission to candidacy for the degree of Master
of Education in Business or Master of Science in Business, the
student must take the Graduate Record Examination aptitude
test. Information about this examination can be obtained from
the Graduate School.

Business teachers with the proper prerequisites can earn, at
the graduate level, certificates in Marketing, Data Processing,
and Distributive Education. They may also earn an endorsement
of their present vocational certificate which qualifies them to be
a Cooperative Education Teacher.

Distributive Education teachers seeking to broaden their
background in marketing, merchandising, and management
may pursue the Master of Education Degree emphasizing these
areas. Individuals without an undergraduate degree in business
may pursue graduate work leading to certification as
Distributive Education teachers.

CHEMISTRY

The Chemistry Depailment offers three different degree
programs on the masters level: the Master of Education and
Master of Science degrees in chemistry and the Master of Arts
degree in Industrial chemistry.

The Master of Education program is designed for the
secondary school teacher to afford the teacher the opportunity
to gain more knowledge of chemistry and keep abreast of a
rapidly changing field. The major emphasis is on subject matter.
The student may enroll on either a full- or part-time basis.

The Master of Science degree is for the chemist who intends
to pursue further graduate work leading to a Ph.D. or who
intends to work as a professinal chemist and desires to become
more competent in chemistry. This degree is research oriented
and successful completion of an experimental thesis is
required. Also, two consecutive semesters of residency are
required.

The Master of Arts degree is designed to meet the needs of
the chemist who is currently a full time employee of the
chemical industry and who wishes to strengthen his knowledge
in those areas relevant to his employment. The emphasis here is
on course work.

Four core courses, one in each of the areas of inorganic,
organic, analytical, and physical chemistry, are required in the
M.S. and MA. programs.* Beyond this point the programs
separate with the M.S. and MA. student taking more specialized
work in chemistry along with an experimental research
problem. The M.Ed, candidate will take broadening courses
which will make him a more effective teacher. The industrial
chemist will take more specialized work in chemistry and will be

42 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania

encouraged to take courses outside the sciences if they are
relevant to his particular area of employment.

General Admission Requirements — Candidates for
admission to the Master's program must have a Bachelor's
degree from an accredited college or university and an
undergraduate grade point average of 2.5 or better. Students
should have completed one year each of general chemistry,
analytical chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry**,
general physics, and calculus. Students wishing to specialize in
biochemistry should also have had an undergraduate course in
biochemistry. Students deficient in the above areas of study
may also be admitted provided these deficiencies are made up
concurrently with the student's graduate studies.

The general requirements for admission to candidacy for a
Master's Degree are discussed on page 18 of this bulletin.

*An exception to this is afforded the student wishing to specialize

in biochemistry.
*Only one semester of physical chemistry is required for

education majors.

THE DOCTORATE IN ELEMENTARY EDUCATION

The program leading to the Doctor of Education degree in
Elementary Education is designed for those who wish to teach
at the college or university level or who desire to work in a
teaching, supervisory, or administrative capacity.

A candidate for this degree is expected to acquire a broad
knowledge of various aspects of education, and to demonstrate
through the completion of an acceptable dissertation the ability
to conduct an independent investigation of a topic approved by
the department.

Program Curricula -
Elementary Education

The first step in a student's program is to seek admission to
course work beyond the Master's degree. After the student has
completed 9 hours and prior to 15 hours of advanced work at
Indiana, he can apply for candidacy. To become a candidate a
student must meet the requirements of the Graduate School and
the department of Elementary Education. Applicants are
reviewed on the basis of acceptable scores on the Graduate
Record Examination, performance in course work, professional
recommendations, and successfully passing a written and an
oral examination administered by the department.

After admission to candidacy the student will be assigned to
an advisory committee. This committee will assist the student in
preparing a final plan of study. The comprehensive examination
will be scheduled upon the recommendation of the advisory
committee near the end of course requirements and prior to
registering for GD 650 — dissertation credits. This examination
will be both written and oral and will include a major and a
second concentration field.

No specific number of credits entitles a student to the degree,
but a minimum of 90 hours of credit properly distributed must be
earned beyond the Bachelor's degree.

Statistics and computer science are required to complete the
research area of study. However, foreign language may be
substituted as an option.

A supervised internship and a period of residency will be
required of all candidates for this degree. Ordinarily the
internship will consist of working for a semester or a summer in
an educational experience unlike one already experienced by
the candidate.

MASTER OF ARTS AND MASTER OF EDUCATION

A candidate for a Master's degree in English may choose a
program leading to either the Master of Education orthe Master
of Arts. The choice will depend on the background of the
candidate and his purpose in pursuing graduate study. Both
programs share a common aim of increasing the candidate's
knowledge.of English language and literature and introducing
him to the discipline of advanced study. In addition, the Master
of Education degree aims at preparing teachers for public
schools.

After a student is admitted to the graduate school the
Director of Doctoral Studies will consult with him about the
scheduling of courses. He should apply for candidacy before 12
credits have been earned.

I. Research Options

The writing of a thesis is optional for both the M.A. and the
M.Ed, degree. The English department values writing and
research; however, a candidate's decision concerning the thesis
should be made on the basis of his purposes in obtaining the
degree and the extent to which training in research will enhance
both his professional and his personal goals. Under special
circumstances and upon request from the Graduate School, a
thesis may be written for additional credit after the student has
already completed the Master's degree without a thesis.

II. Master of Arts In English

The M.A. degree either with or without a thesis requires a

minimum of 30 credits beyond the bachelor's degree. The
candidate who chooses not to write a thesis will take all 30
credits in course work. Depending upon the nature of the thesis,
the candidate who chooses to do research will take either 3 or 6
credit hours of the minimum 30 as thesis credits and the
remainder in course work.

Required of all M.A. candidates are (1) EN 580 and (2) a
proficiency in a single language in addition to English. The
language requirement may be satisfied by acceptable
undergraduate credit of 12 hours, by examination through the
Foreign Languages Department at lUP, or by the Graduate
School Foreign Language Test through the Educational Testing
Service, Princeton.

The M.A. candidate may, if he chooses, apply a maximum of 6
hours credit in a related field (e.g. history, philosophy,
psychology) toward satisfying his total course requirements. All
hours remaining from the minimum 30 hours requirement will
be satisfied by courses listed in the catalogue EN 500 through

DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY PROGRAMS

There are two distinct doctoral programs in English, one in
English and American literature, and the other in English
Education designed for English teachers in the community
college. Both programs lead to a Doctor of Philosophy in
English.
I. Doctor of Philosophy In English and American Literature

The program leading to the Doctor of Philosophy in English
and American literature is designed for those who wish to teach
at the four-year college or university level. A candidate for this
degree is expected to acquire a broad knowledge in limited
areas of study and to show through the completion of an
acceptable dissertation the ability to conduct an independent
investigation of a topic approved by the department. To become
a candidate the applicant must meet all the Graduate School
requirements for candidacy, as well as the special requirements
of the English department. Admission to course work beyond
the Master's degree does not constitute admission to candidacy
for the Ph.D. program. No specific number of course credits
entitles a student to the degree, but a minimum of 60 semester
hours of credit, exclusive of research credits, must be earned
beyond the Bachelor's degree. Applications for candidacy will
be reviewed by a departmental committee after eight hours of
graduate credit have been earned beyond the Master's degree
and before 16 hours have been completed. In determining
whether or not an applicant should be accepted as a candidate
for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, the committee will

consider his scores on the Graduate Record Examination, his
performance in course work, and, whenever applicable, his
performance as a teaching-intern.

On application for candidacy, the candidate will be assigned
to a dissertation committee who will help the candidate prepare
a plan of study for a comprehensive examination, both written
and oral, which will be taken on the recommendation of the
dissertation committee near the end of course requirements and
before registering for GD 650, dissertation credits.

The foreign language requirements for Ph.D. candidates in
English must be completed before the comprehensive
examination. For those candidates who do not satisfy this
requirement by course work, the Education Testing Service
administers examinations in French, German, Russian and
Spanish. All other language examinations (and in special cases
those in French, German, Russian, and Spanish) are
administered by the Foreign Languages Departments of the
University. The candidate's dissertation committee will make
the final decision about what languages to accept and how
much proficiency to require.

On approval of the dissertation committee, a candidate may
take as many as 15 graduate hours of course work in a minor
field in support of his major research interest.

Candidates must demonstrate the capacity to teach
effectively, either in the departmental teacher-internship
program, or through other acceptable teaching experience.
English is required of all candidates.

A complete description of the Ph.D. program in English and
American literature can be obtained from the English
Department or from the Graduate School.

community college. The pre-service candidate for this degree is
expected to acquire a thorough understanding of the
community college as an institution and to demonstrate, largely
through his semester's internship at a community college, his
ability to teach effectively.

The in-service candidate for this degree may have the
internship waived after a description and evaluation of his
teaching experiences have been accepted.

Upon admission to the program, the candidate will be
assigned to a Program/Evaluation Committee which will, in
consultation with the candidate, work out a program of study.
The Program/Evaluation Committee will review also the
candidate's application for candidacy, which must be submitted
after eight hours of graduate credit have been earned and before
16 hours have been completed. Another function of the
Program/Evaluation Committee will be to prepare a
comprehensive examination, written and oral, for each
candidate.

Although there are some general course and research
requirements for this degree, they may be waived by the
student's Program/Evaluation Committee if they believe he has
already acquired the information or specific competencies
which these courses are designed to communicate or develop.
These general course requirements are as follows: EN 589; EN
592; EN 503; EN 591; nine hours of elective credits in
psychology, sociology, learning resources, etc.; a dissertation
related to English education; a semester's internship at a
community college.

FOUNDATIONS OF EDUCATION

The Foundations of Education Department seeks to expose
its Students to a systematic inqultY into educational theories
and practices through a philosophical, sociological, historical,
and comparative analysis. Foundations study generates criteria
for judgment and helps to formulate a Gestalt of various
subjects. It also helps to develop an integral and cross-sectional
view of education, while augmenting the construction,
clarification, and evaluation of educational goals necessary for
development of effective methods of instruction. Furthermore, it
broadens perspectives and deepens analyses of policies and
programs which help educational personnel find meaning and
value in all educational activities.

course work.

The Department invites students with a limited geography
background to extend their general education through
enrollment in geography courses. Students in Elementary,
Social Science, Science, or Business may find Geography
courses closely related to their fields.

The degree sought will depend upon the personal objectives
of the individual. The Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree is
professional and oriented to teaching.

The Master of Arts and Master of Science degrees are
designed with knowledge of subject matter as the objective.
Although these degrees are complete programs, they also are
designed as preparation for further graduate study. The Master
of Arts and Master of Science degree differ both in their
programs and in the background required.

The Master of Arts degree is for the student interested in the
human, economic, and regional development of earth space.

The Master of Science degree is for the student with a
mathematics and science background who is interested in the
study of the physical factors in environment.

The student will, in consultation with the Department,
determine whether or not a thesis will be a required activity of
his or her degree program.

PHILOSOPHY

PHYSICS

Graduate courses in Philosophy are primarily designed to
provide elective study in an unfamiliar discipline for teachers in
the public schools. No graduate degree in Philosophy is offered.
Degrees toward which credit in these courses may be used are
indicated in the curriculum requirements sections of the
catalog. Research or thesis work may be done in Philosophy
with approval of the student's major program advisor.

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

PH 580 READINGS IN RELIGIOUS THOUGHT 2 s h.

An examination of religion as a vital human phenomenon. Treating both
classical and contemporary themes; origin of western theological thinking;
alienation; contemporary atheism; definitions of deity in western and eastern
religions; the sacred; origins of religion.

PH 581 PROBLEMS IN LOGIC 2 s.h.

Difficulties of meaning (semantics), formal structures of reasoning
(syntactics), and nature of truth finding (empirics) Fallacy.

The graduate program in physics offers a choice of three
degrees: a Master of Education, a Master of Arts, and a Master of
Science. The student obtaining a master's degree for fulfillment
of certification requirements usually selects either the Master of
Education Degree or the Master of Arts Degree. The student
obtaining a master's degree for additional preparation for
research, an industrial position, or further graduate work will
usually select the Master of Science Degree.

With a wide range of possible courses and research areas
available, the student is required to have the consent of his
departmental advisor before selecting a course or initiating a
research project. Advisor assignments are made as soon as the
acceptance of a graduate student reaches the physics
department. The graduate student should arrange
appointments with his advisor by contacting the secretary in the
physics office.

Almost any combination of educational goals can be met.

PH 582 PROBLEMS OF ETHICS 2 s h

this course. (Staff)

CURRICULUM FOR MASTER OF

EDUCATION DEGREE

This program has a very large component of professional
education with a limited number of semester hours available for
Physics content courses. Thus students In this degree program
will usually be those who hold an undergraduate B.A. or B.S. in
Physics with a great deal of Physics content and for whom the
professional education credential will be advantageous. The
expectation is that these students will be working toward full
certification to teach Physics in public secondary schools.

I. Professional Development Area — 9 semester hours

A. Humanistic Studies (3 s.h.) — One course must be
selected from FE 511 through FE 514

CURRICULUM FOR MASTER OF ARTS DEGREE

This program is the most flexible of the three graduate
degree programs offered by the Physics Department. Each
student's program is designed to meet his or her Individual
needs by the student and advisor working together.

The educational goals of students In many categories can be
met while the student is working to attain his degree. Several
examples of the category of student who may select this degree
program are:

1. The student whose undergraduate training is in Physics
Education, Physical Science Education, or Science
Education with a strong professional education
component. This student may need more content than
professional education. In this program he may, with the
concurrence of his advisor, enroll in exactly that ratio of
content courses to professional education courses which
are necessary to attain his goals.

2. The student who holds a teaching certificate in a field
other than physics but is a secondary school physics
teacher These students often require formal course work
in a number of areas of Physics in order to have Physics
added to their certificate. This is normally a requirement
of their school districts and/or the Commonwealth. This
program allows them to meet this requirement while
working toward a degree.

3. The student who wishes to enroll in a cooperative program
including those programs with internship components.
Students may earn 8 to 12 semester hours during a
semester while interning under one of the special
programs instituted by the University.

100 — Indiana University of Pennsylvania

SUBJECT MATTER — 15 semester hours minimum.

Required coursework in Physics is to be selected from the
Graduate Physics courses whose course number is 510 or
greater. This selection must have the prior approval of the
student's academic advisor and a notation of such approval Is to
appear in the student's folder.

ELECTiVES — 11 to 18 s.h.

The student may complete the requirements for an M.A. by
selecting, with the approval of his advisor, from among the
offerings of the Graduate School. The number of credits he
selects for electives depends upon the option he exercises
under Research and Thesis.

RESEARCH AND THESIS OPTION

Each Master of Arts student must complete his degree
requirements in one of the following two ways:

A. Undertake an individual research problem and complete
an acceptable thesis. For this option he must schedule
PY 600 for 2 s.h. and GR 550 for at least 2 s.h. If he selects
this option he will have completed a minimum of 30 s.h.
including these two courses for his degree.

B. Decide, with the approval of his academic advisor, that he
does not wish to undertake such a research problem. If he
exercises this option, he will not do a thesis but must
complete a minimum of 33 s.h. of coursework.

B.S. with the major in physics will be permitted to initiate
study in this curriculum. Students having other degrees that
provide sufficient preparation in mathematics and physics
may be permitted to initiate study with approval of the
Chairman of Physics.

READING

There is a marked need for qualified and properly certified
reading personnel in public and parochial schools at all levels of
instruction. In particular, there is a noted shortage of both
Reading Specialists and Reading Supervisors in the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,

In keeping with these demands, Indiana University of
Pennsylvania provides and directs the formal learning
experiences of the Reading Specialists and Reading Supervisor
at the graduate level. These learning experiences entail both
classroom and clinical instruction by faculty members who are
sincere and dedicated to the students and the programs. In
addition, the faculty members represent a marked balance with
a variety of backgrounds and areas of expertise — reading,
elementary and secondary education, psychology and reading
research.

Specific Requirements

Students seeking a Master of Education degree with a major
in reading and who desire certification as Reading Specialists
are required to complete a minimum of thirty-six (36) semester
hours of course work selected from the curriculum designed for
the preparation of Reading Specialists.

A student who wishes to secure reading specialist
certification does not desire a Master of Education degree may
do so by formulating a program of studies with the Coordinator
of the Graduate Reading Program contingent upon admission
to the Graduate School. The program for each student will be
formulated based on the student's needs, educational
experiences and teaching experiences. All students who desire

SOCIOLOGY

The Masters of Arts in Sociology is designed to serve two
basic orientations: a) preparing for professional careers in
academic organizations, such as community college teaching
and governmental and social agencies, and/or research; as well
as a scholarly foundation for those students who are interested
in continuing their studies into a doctoral program; b) a
professional commitment to community service and social
agencies. This orientation recognizes that mature students can
apply sociological theory and research findings to community
organizations through their daily Interactions, making major
contributions to the community and human life. The M.A. in
Sociology is also geared to benefit students who have an
interest in government administration, urban planning, social
welfare agencies, and other human services.

In addition to graduate school admission requirements, the
student must have completed at least 1 2 hours of undergraduate
Sociology courses with an average grade of B or better. In
individual cases the department may allow a promising student
to enter the program with deficiencies; however, such
deficiencies must be made up by taking one or more of the
